Glad you finally got some luck 🍀👍🏼

@Gregory ********

- good luck I'm sure you will get there...👍🏼🍀

As others have said seems like you have been unlucky and walked into the wrong branches.

I spoke to my girlfriend earlier and asked what papers they wanted and it was a copy of my passport, her Thai house book and she said that she had to give a copy of her Thai ID card and sign a 'guarantor' form in relation to me...hope this helps 💳

@Jamie *****

- I said I would have been getting pretty angry...I don't give up or into bureaucracy but obviously it's normal for such problems in Thailand...I try to avoid such situations with good planning.

I think the OP has been unlucky he needs to keep going

@Gregory ********

- where are you trying to open it...mine is with Bangkok Bank too but we opened it in Bua Yai, Nakhon Ratchasima province. Have you tried calling BKK helpline and complaining...seems to me people either don't know what they are doing or are acting beyond their authority. I suppose it's Thailand so maybe normal I think I would be getting pretty angry if I was there lol 😂🙄😁

@Karim **************

- yes just reading some of the comments I would be asking to see their T & C's and asking to speak to the manager...sometimes being pushy gets results

Not sure if anyone else has said the same but maybe it's the 'tourist visa'. I had no problem but was on a Non Immigrant O...have you thought to ask to see their T & C's...they shouldn't be just making things up all I can say was it was very easy for me...I am guessing but I think the Visa may be the issue 🤔

Don't go for anything other than Non Immigrant O...most of the others you must have expensive health insurance...you may want this in due course anyway but you don't need that pressure initially...they range a lot in price and benefits and your age and health will massively affect availability...be careful what you do 👍🏼

@David ******

- sounds awful I think I would move lol 😂

@David ******

- oh I see...yeah the UK is very low down on world rankings for broadband its shameful considering our history and wealth....watch about Virgin...I wouldn't recommend them as I was with them awful company but they use their own equipment unless you're out in the sticks?
